Safety, trust & environment

I provide loving, attentive, and personalized care whether in my home or yours. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment with plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I maintain their daily routines, ensuring they feel at ease. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize familiarity and consistency, following their regular schedule to reduce stress. I also offer basic home care like bringing in mail and maintaining a tidy space. My goal is to provide a seamless, worry-free experience, keeping pets happy and owners updated with regular check-ins and photos.

I would like to know if they are high energy or not. If they like walks/ running ect. If they are typically friendly to say high with other dogs. If they need treats or not allowed.

A typical day

I willl play with them by running around the park, going on walks, giving them lots of attention and let’s. I can train if necessary

Reliable & Loving Pet Care

Pet care experience

As a lifelong pet lover and dedicated dog owner, I bring over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. Growing up with dogs and providing loving care for my own, I understand the importance of trust, reliability, and companionship in pet sitting. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight care, I ensure each pet feels safe, happy, and well-cared for. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority!

Katie was great! Kaia liked her, and she came through for us in a pinch due to a cancelled flight.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
